quote, now that he, nelson mandela, now that he's dead and can cause no more trouble, nelson mandela is being mourned across the idealogical spectrum as a saint, but not long ago in washington's highest circles he was considered an enemy of the state. unless we remember why, we won't truly remember his legacy. let's start in the '80s. what was it about ronald regan? he saw mandela as such as threat. why? >> by the '70s and '80s he was seen as a threat in two different ways. the first was he had been involved in an organization that had supported aggressive tactics to end apartheid. it had been deemed a terrorist organization by the south african government. and some americans picked up on that. and the second was the accusation that he had received money from communists to support his causes. so this overwhelmed the actual cause that he was struggling for. and became a source of controversy during the '80s. >> dr. franklin, last time i saw you, you had come back from south africa. this summer, and you had sort of paid your respects in a sense over the summer when you were there, but
